Safety during training is our top priority! Our gym is equipped with martial arts mats and gear (helmets, vests are provided for free).

Taekwondo stands out from other martial arts as combat is executed in defense, minimizing the risk of injuries.

Classes are conducted in small groups (up to 15 people).

The training program for each group is tailored to individual characteristics, physical abilities, and the presence or absence of experience for each student.

TOURNAMENT ACTIVITY
(for beginners and experienced fighters)

Athletes from the Sports Club "IKIGAI" consistently secure over 100 podium finishes annually across competitions of varying difficulty levels. On average, the team participates in 10-12 tournaments for both sparring and poomsae.

Competing with both electronic and traditional judging systems, athletes engage in tournaments showcasing their skills.

With the opening of a branch in Georgia, we will initiate sparring training sessions and organize local tournaments.

Among the nurtured talents of the Sports Club "IKIGAI," there are medalists from international competitions.

BELT EXAMINATIONS

Twice a year, Sports Club "IKIGAI" conducts belt examinations. The exams are evaluated by instructors with a minimum rank of 2nd dan in WTF Taekwondo.

Black belt examinations adhere to the standards of the KUKKIWON Dan Promotion Test.

The journey to a black belt in the club typically takes an average of 5 years.

FAMILY TRIPS
MOUNTAIN EXPEDITION

The club has embraced the tradition of organizing uncomplicated MOUNTAIN EXPEDITIONS for students and active parents. These outings are led by a professional guide with a medical background. In the vicinity of Batumi, we plan to arrange straightforward trekking routes.

Since 2013, our team has been arranging family-oriented sports day outings, incorporating not only Taekwondo training but also hosting workshops in disciplines such as Wushu, Qigong, Capoeira, Hapkido, body percussion, painting, cupping massage, and visceral therapy.

After 3 months of training in the "IKIGAI" section, your child:

Will become physically stronger.

Regular training helps develop the muscular system, increase endurance, and strengthen the immune system.

Will improve flexibility and posture.

In 9 months of consistent training, a student masters the splits. Each session includes stretching elements to strengthen the abdominal and back muscles.

Will master striking techniques.

60% of the training process is dedicated to developing punches and kicks, learning to deliver precise, focused strikes, and applying techniques in sparring.

Will become more confident in themselves

Mastering combat skills fosters leadership and teaches teamwork, which in turn boosts self-esteem and popularity among peers.

Ikigai's history in numbers

15

The IKIGAI section has been successfully operating for many years.

1000+

Over 1000 athletes have trained at the club during this time.

90+

So many awards are annually earned by students at tournaments.

Mikhail Somov, the founder of "IKIGAI" Sports Club, holds a II Dan in WTF Taekwondo.

With 15 years of experience in professional coaching, I can confidently state that every child possesses tremendous potential.

We do not set limitations based on the students' levels. Everyone can reach the black belt, some faster, others slower. However, ensuring correct technique, following a training plan that considers individual characteristics, staying in communication with the athlete's family, monitoring safety and the student's health – these are necessities in any sport.

Choosing a sports section is a responsible step. I am ready to answer all your questions. Leave a request for a consultation, and I will personally contact you during the next working hours.

Reviews from children and parents

Don has been attending for four years. We initially joined the section to engage our active three-year-old, with proximity to home being the primary criterion at the time. However, later on, we realized how fortunate we were with the coach! Mikhail is one of those people they say are a teacher sent from above. Teaching is challenging, and instructing young children is incredibly difficult, but Mikhail finds the right words and approach for each student.

I want to highlight how much our whole family enjoys collective outings outside the city. It's always fun and interesting there!

Larisa Nam

We are delighted that Mikhail Vyacheslavovich is coaching our daughter Vika (8 years old). The child enjoys the training, and we see results. Vika can now do the splits, has become more confident and organized. She especially enjoys going to tournaments and winning :)

Mikhail has the ability to motivate a child to achieve results, which can be very challenging with young kids.

Elena Solovyeva

Mikhail is not just a coach and athlete with diverse skills; he is an educator with a capital "E". He can capture the attention of a room filled with dozens of children of different ages and characters, to the envy of other orators and politicians. He knows how to approach each child, delving into all the complexities and nuances of each psyche. My children have been involved in various sports, and I have spent hundreds of person-hours waiting for them during competitions and training. Therefore, I can undoubtedly compare, and Mikhail is the only coach I've seen who comes up with such a variety of forms for both in-class and out-of-class activities every year that we lose count. The constant feedback he provides allows us to see our child dynamically from different perspectives. Mikhail teaches children the concepts of Strength, Dignity, and Integrity on their chosen Path. Speaking for myself, I can say that my children - and me too! - are incredibly fortunate to be in our "Ikigai" club under the guidance of Mikhail Somov.

В секцию «Икигай» я пришел в 2011 году. Когда впервые посетил зал и просто застыл в восхищении, наблюдая за красивыми и точными движениями учеников и тренера. Тогда я ясно для себя понял, что это то место, где я хочу быть.
Мое общение с клубом длилось 6 лет, и за это время я получил бесценный опыт!
Главное, что выделяет «Икигай», - это подход тренера к ученикам и самому процессу.
Если вы хотите, чтоб ваш ребенок к 18 годам был готов ко всему, что ждет его в жизни, стал ответственнее и целеустремленне е, то Михаил Вячеславович - ваш тренер. Искренне рекомендую
